Monique presents the biggest conflict that she has encountered in her life: hypothyroidism. Through her stories of how she coped with the new challenges presented to her, Monique explains that we need to find the positive end to every seemingly negative event, and find what life lessons it teaches us. 
 Monique is fascinated by why things are the way they are and how they came to be that way. Although she has yet to cement her career path, Monique is considering a multitude of fields, primarily law, medicine, and journalism. Monique is determined to challenge herself in any capacity she can. She hopes to one day profoundly impact the life of at least one other person. She loves to read, work out, make spotify playlists, and be with her friends. Monique would like to thank her great, big, fat Russian family, particularly her mom, grandfather and sister for always being there to put things into perspective. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
